Draba heilii is restricted to Mora and Rio Arriba counties. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Plants of Draba oblongata are occasionally misidentified as decaploid (2n = 80) D. arctica, but the former is readily separated by a preponderance of simple (versus stellate) trichomes on both leaf blade surfaces. Draba oblongata is sometimes confused with D. micropetala, but the latter has pale yellow (versus white) flowers, fruits pubescent with simple and spurred (versus (2–)5–12-rayed) trichomes, and stigmas as wide as (versus much wider than) the style.
